I knew more Madisons than Madeleines when I was in school and they all went by Maddie, but either would be fine with me. I have tried that argument and he said it's the name of a magical girl so it doesn't have cultural significance to the point where it'd be cultural appropriation.

It's a real Japanese name though. Just because he's inspired by a fictional character doesn't mean it's not an actual name real people have. That makes it appropriation.
